Do you clay or do you use a decontamination product?

I hear you brother! I think and re-think everything. It’s a killer lol.

I’m still trying to complete the mustang project- I’ve got a LOT of parts coming for it.

Finishing up the suspension on it with just about every piece available from Maximum Motorsports.

Striker- Heh heh, my Inner Old Guy wants to say "finish that Fox body first" :D Yeah, MM is the [stuff] for the suspensions on those, huh? Oh man, could I go nuts with a project like that...

That was another thing that got me off that VW wagon, the Crown Vic has been sitting here unfinished forever (and the S8 and the Jag are mothballed too) as I just don`t have the time/motivation to [mess] with such stuff at present (keeping the dailies nice is plenty, thanks). As I finally told my wife, having an additional vehicle just won`t make my life better no matter what it is...already/still have too many already.
 
I’ll be honest, it’s a lot of work. I sometimes forget it’s in the garage and kinda don’t even wanna look at it.

We’ve had he front end off of it twice. To clean up and remove that rust check stuff I mentioned above earlier ^^^

However, the end results were amazing. It was like unwrapping a greasy present lol!!

Question to bring this back up from the dead l again-

After Iron X and a clay mitt- is an alcohol bath needed? I ask because to use the clay mitt, one has to use a clay lubricant- and the residue from this will remain on the surface.

I have not used it myself but will order this soon. Maybe someone can chaim in on how it`s as a claylube? It`s McKees 37 N-914 I thinking about. It`s seems like it has great lubrication in it. Dilute it in 1:128 as a claylube to use with the clay mitt. Then dilute it in 1:8 to do a prep wipe. I really like the thought about it don`t have any glossenhancer or wax and protection polymers in it. I would use a panel wipe product as the have some lubrication in them that evaporate off after wipe it off.

Doesn`t hurt to go over the paint with some sort of panel wipe. I follow up with Eraser after claying with Immolube as Immolube leaves residue behind.
